Some people think that taking IQ test is really gay. However if you take tests that are done by PHD people that have years of experience, i think its really a mind opener and it help you to point out your strength and weaknesses. Recently I have been doing an IQ test designed to tell me my dominant type of intelligence from my score of 6 different types of intelligence. I think the test was very precise and it describes me very well. So if you want to know me better, here was my score :
Logical/mathematics - 10/10
Personal -9/10
Visual/spartial - 9/10
Physical - 8/10
linguistic - 6/10
social - 3/10
My dominant intelligence is Logic/mathematics, which i scored full marks :P .People with a high level of logical/mathematical intelligence are generally great problem solvers who are able to both think critically and analyze data. Individuals who have this intelligence also tend to see the world as a logical place. This is probably true because they're usually so skilled at picking up the patterns all around them. Whether it's a scientist noticing a repeated behavior in one of his subjects or a mathematician using patterns of numbers to solve a theorem, this type of intelligence can be extremely handy in intellectual pursuits.
i scored quite high on personal intelligence. People with a high level of personal intelligence aren't afraid to ask themselves life's big questions: "Why am I here?" or "What's the meaning of life?" These issues are everyday fare for people using their personal intelligence. By being willing to explore the unknown, personally intelligent people can seem positively fearless to those who'd rather focus on simpler, more concrete issues. It's true: Asking deep questions that may have no definitive answers can be scary at times. However, by delving into these existential places, personally intelligent types can become very in tune with their feelings, values, and ideals.
My visual/spartial score was also high. People with visual/spatial intelligence have the interesting ability of being able to form high-quality mental images and even manipulate those pictures to form new things. Visual/spatial abilities can include being able to visualize accurate representations of existing objects and having the skill to imagine detailed original designs or scenes. In the career world, this can make visual/spatial types great at everything from mechanical engineering to interior design.
My psychical intelligence is quite OK. When most of us think of physical intelligence, we think of dancers and athletes. Indeed, athletic prowess, physical grace, and control of the body for achievement or expression are each important aspects of this kind of intelligence. However, another important facet is the use of fine motor skills such as hand-eye coordination for activities like surgery, carpentry, and painting.
My Linguistic intelligence is somewhat average. Generally, people with a high degree of linguistic intelligence have a greater gift for expressing themselves than most other people do. In fact, linguistically intelligent people often become known as real wordsmiths among their friends and colleagues. Whether their skills center on having the gift of gab or the ability to turn an elegant phrase, linguistically intelligent types know how to get a point across with precision and flair. Poets, thespians, writers, and public speakers are among the people who rely heavily on linguistic intelligence. It is true, since im not good at being a storyteller. But it could be worse. Im using this blog to train my Linguistic skills though.
It cant be denied that i suck at social intelligence. Social intelligence refers to the ability to read other people and understand their intentions and motivations. People with this intelligence are usually clued in to the differences between what others say and what they really mean. As a result, socially intelligent types may sometimes be accused of being mind readers. People who successfully use this type of intelligence can be masterful conversationalists. This can be due to a combination of excellent listening skills and the ability to meaningfully engage others. People who are socially intelligent can usually make the people around them feel comfortable and included. They also tend to enjoy interacting with a variety of people.
That was the technical description of me. This is my own explanation :
I describe myself as a technical skill oriented person and i like things that involve thinking, solving and understanding. I guess thats engineering. Im also a person that is always searching for the truth and not afraid to admit if im wrong and improving or changing myself accordingly. I like sports and challenging physical activities. Although im not so good with words, but because i like journalism, im practicing and improving my linguistic skills for the better. And I really suck when it comes to judging people or even reading peoples body language. It sucks because if u are a girl and you like me, there is not way i can tell or notice unless you tell me directly (which not many girls can do). Its a good thing too because i dont judge people, no matter how bad or notorious you are, If your nice to me, i wont judge you and we can be good friends :-)
so, there you go...a technical and personal introduction to myself...:P

"Hello I'm a Mac.......... and I'm Die Hard"
Have you ever seen the Apple Mac advertisements? They will always start with, "Hello I'm a Mac, and I'm a PC" and continue with all that crap they do....anyway, the reason i'm bringing this up is because I have just watched the movie "live free or die hard" aka Die Hard 4.0 and the hero's sidekick is the guy that was acting in the Apple Mac advertisements (the Mac guy).
Now I'll try not to give out any spoilers so, allow me to give some introduction to the movie. The reason the movie is called "Die hard 4.0" (take note the 4.0) is because it is about cyber terrorism and the "4.0" is kindda like a "dot.net" way to put it. The Mac guy plays the role of a hacker that accidentally helps the terrorist come up with a code to hack government computer systems. As a note the terrorists boss is an American, so that rules out any external Al-Qaeda extremist groups doing the terrorism. Like other series in the Die Hard franchise, it is packed with action.....with lots of explosions, shooting, people dying car chases and not forgetting some hot chicks.... Acting was Nothing special and I can say the same for the storyline. Its a typical American action movie. Yet it was fun to watch, so I recommend watching it.
More interesting was the cinema in which i watched the movie. It was part of a special offer called "wake up movie", where the movie, tentatively, started at 6am, YES, 6am and we get a croissant and coffee for free and it (only) costs 3 euros!! It was the first time i experienced watching a movie at that hour. We were "earlier than the birds". However the movie only started at 6.50am due to some delays....and afterwards we went straight to work....how cool is that?
I wish there were something like this in Malaysian theaters :)

My "Boleh" XP
Reffering to the previous post, i would like to share my -BolehXP.
As you probobly know, a tropical country like Malaysia, storm drains are very important to ensure places in the country do not turn into instant swimming pools during the rainy seasons. These storm drains are big and sometimes scary. Realizing that, the government will always put metal bars to keep people from falling into them.
So one day i was driving along Jalan Tun Razak towards PWTC and i saw a sight i couldn't believe. there were a group of 3 people openly trying to cut the metal bars out and steal them. Of course this would be considered a normal crime around the klang Valley, but doing it in broad daylight and in front of millions of cars passing by?? thats really a "boleh" attitude displayed by the culprits. Im pretty sure they were stealing it because i don't see any reason to remove a perfectly placed metal drain cover unless you wanted to steal it, and they don't look like any Indah Water or DBKL people to me. it was amazing, in a bad way.
